Grade 3/4
Hello my Grade 3 and 4’s!!
Your first music project: If you could find a (8-10) pieces of paper (lined paper or blank paper: your choice), stack them on top of each other and fold them in half to make a little booklet so you can use this as a reflective music journal.
*If you have a stapler at home, staple the middle of the booklet where the fold is happening so the pages are more secure staying together. (Not to worry if it is too difficult to do).
Instructions:
- First page is your own creative Title Page. Example: Johny’s book of songs! (or whatever title you wish to have)
- Next page: a song you listened to on the radio or a song that comes to mind. Write the name of the song, and 3 reasons or thoughts on why you chose this song.
- How did the song speak to you? example: Beautiful melodic line, or did the lyrics of the song speak to you?
- What part of the song impacted you the most? Why?
- Ideally: one page is for one song. Unless you feel you may have a lot to write about for one song. (Look below at idea #2)
- Please colour it and design it in making it your own!
*Idea #1: Perhaps you can fill a page a day = meaning a new song a day, Perhaps a page a week = a new song a week.
*Idea #2: Or perhaps if you’d like to write in detail about one song that has really impacted you, perhaps 2-3 pages on different verses of that song, and how these lyrics has helped you reflect on your current way of feeling, learning, and thoughts.
Attached I have some music videos that you can sing along in your free time and a picture showing the different hand signs for Do, Re, Mi!
Here is the youtube video of the song we learned in class: Do Re Mi! Please sing along with the actions, perhaps you can teach your family how to sing the song!
I have attached the youtube link of where the song come from: The Movie Sound of Music! Please feel free to use and sing along!
I have attached 2 youtube links for learning/ practicing Solfa Hand Signs while singing Twinkle, Twinkle, ABC, Baa Baa Black Sheep. For Baa Baa Black sheep, the version I did is a simpler version. The link I provided only had the original version available so it will be slightly different from mine. Both are great to sing! Hope you Enjoy!
Youtube links:
Twinkle Twinkle – Singing in Solfa, Twinkle Twinkle – Solfa Hand signs, ABC – Singing in Solfa (try to do your hand signs with the song!), Baa Baa Black Sheep
Lesson 3: Can you find the “NOTE” difference between Merrily we Roll Along and Mary Had a little lamb? Is it Do? Re? Mi? Fa? or So?
Lesson 4: Hot Cross Buns – Solfege
Lesson 5: Row Row Row Your Boat – with HIGH “DO”
(Optional1) Solfege: piano playing, try singing along with the notes!
(Optional!) Advanced: Row your boat (hearing different voices starting at different times)
Lesson 6: This old Man – A lot of skipping in between notes, so be careful!
This old Man – what it would look like as music notes!

Green Sally up, Green Sally down, Green Sally baked her possum brown. I asked my momma for fifty cents to see the elephant jump the fence. She jumped so high, she touched the sky; Didn’t come back ’til the Fourth of July.

Tic-Tac-Toe – Hand Clapping Game: I thought this would be fun to try! See how fast you can go? Perhaps combine it with rock, paper, scissors while saying “Jonny got hit by a UFO!” at the end before you start the pattern again!
Cup Song: Main thing is to stay steady and in rhythm/ consistent tempo! See if you all can sit at the family table/ living room and try!
Here’s another challenge that you can hopefully try with your family members!! It’s called “Sevens” Hand clapping game! Let’s see how many people in your family can join in and play along!!
